Devan Dubnyk was hurt.
The Minnesota Wild goaltender revealed after his team's Game 6 ouster by the Dallas Stars that he was playing with a blocker-side hand injury, according to the Star Tribune's Michael Russo. The netminder "was in pain every time he played the puck," Russo tweeted.
Dubnyk didn't have a great series. He entered Game 6 with a .892 save percentage, and allowed five goals on 24 shots Sunday.
Dubnyk: "It was disappointing to end on a strange goal. It's tough to sit on a bouncer like that...But that's the way it is."
